On 10 July, the session of the Assembly of Kosovo began with a minute of silence to honor the victims of the genocide in Srebrenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina.<\/p>\n
Bahrim Shabani, the deputy representing the Bosniak community within the Vakat coalition, stated that Kosovo stands by the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina, emphasizing that denial of genocide cannot be allowed or tolerated.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe state of Kosovo and the Bosniaks of Kosovo are committed to preserving the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina as a sovereign, independent, and indivisible state,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Duda Bale, a Bosniak deputy of the Assembly of Kosovo representing the Social Democratic Union, expressed her hope that a genocide like Srebrenica would never be repeated.<\/p>\n
In 2021, the Assembly of Kosovo also adopted a Resolution on Srebrenica, condemning the Serbian regime\u2019s genocide in Srebrenica against Bosniak people, confirming the massacre of over 8,000 Bosniak men and boys, and strongly condemning the denial of genocide.<\/p>\n
This resolution designates 11 July as the \u201cDay of Remembrance of the Srebrenica Genocide\u201d in Kosovo.<\/p>\n
In 2007, the International Court of Justice in The Hague ruled that genocide had taken place in Srebrenica.<\/p>\n
On 8 June 2021, judges at the United Nations Tribunal confirmed, in the second-instance judgment, the life imprisonment of former Bosnian Serb Army commander Ratko Mladic for genocide in Srebrenica, persecution, crimes against humanity, extermination, and other war crimes in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 to 1995.<\/p>\n
Approximately 1,000 remains are still missing, and this year, 30 incomplete bodies of the Srebrenica genocide victims will be buried.<\/p>\n
The mortal remains were found in several graves that were continuously excavated and relocated by members of the Bosnian Serb Army to cover up the crime.<\/p>\n
